Uncle Stan was a great wonderful guy and beloved by all of the Berrin kids. Besides sharing family time while we lived in Toronto, he made many trips to visit his sister and her kids that bonded us with a lifetime of good memories. He was always game for whatever weird mischief we were up to. I will always think of him with that twinkle in his eye that is part of Ash men legacy.

CYNTHIA STREN

Dear Frances, Elaine, Rayna, Brian, Aaron, Ashley, Coby, Gabriela, and Evan, My deepest condolences on the loss of a wonderful husband, father, father-in-law, and grandfather. Yours is an extraordinary family, a family whose members provided the most amazing love and care to each other. Stanley loved you all deeply, and devoted his life to making yours better. In turn, you showered him with loving care. For over 70 years, Frances, you were by his side, helping to build up an internationally-successful business as well as providing a loving home in which the two of you raised the most incredible children. Rayna, Brian, Elaine, I am in awe of the devoted and selfless care you provided to your beloved dad. He couldn't have been prouder at your personal and professional accomplishments, yet it is the effusive love and devotion this man inspired in you that is truly heartwarming and impressive. Stanley was a good friend and neighbour, a gutte neshama, and the epitome of the word "mensch". He will be sorely missed. May memories sustain you, may the love of friends and family give you peace. Fondly, Cynthia Stren

My sincere condolences on your loss. Although I did not know Stanley personally, I knew his sister Eve and her husband Saul Wolfman. I once worked for them and they were such a lovely family, even under the difficult situation they were in with his illness. They made me feel like a member of the family and later, without realizing it, I became related through marriage. May you only have simchas from now on.
